(props to REAL TIME with BILL MAHER on HBO, the best voice on tv,........
the original topic has been edited to make it more clear
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Explain this to me. a good friend of mine(he's black, don't worry) asked me questions regarding the BET network.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if BET is BET (black entertainment television) why don't i see lenny kravitz's videos as an option on 106 and park(oh that's right, he's a rock star)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dave matthews band(contemporary rock goup) got like 3 black dudes playing instruments in the background while the lead singer is a south african native who happens to be white. (oh i said the white word)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(if alicia looked more white she would get no playing time on BET no matter if she was half black or not(mixed people can look more black or white not just in the middle why? cuz they are mixed, duh!) 50 cent is a rapper, so he obviously wouldn't be played on the country music station. i don't think i can explain that anymore, its sarcastic, have a sense of humor, lol)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
speaking of country **** folks, lol, there's this new country singer out, cowboy troy, a 6 3' 230 pound black houston man shaking up country charts with what he calls HICK-HOP, u will never see his black **** on BET
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BET is really TEB (Television that Entertains Blacks) they worried more about that paper. what happened to teen summit every saturday on BET? no more travis smiley? but we got 106 & park, the same damn videoes, on seven times a day. what's next? rap city after BET inspiration on sundays, come on. you can still market a lifestyle without rotting our brains, stick a little substance in, just a little bit, we can head to the crib in a little bit... my bad i had that 50 cent joint in my head.
TO MY PEOPLE, i'm not drinkin that hatorade, I just wanted to bring up an issue that was brought to my attention to you, i still got love for my BET, I just think their ego is a little big. This should be common sense, but i'll say it anyway to those not doing good. WHAT YOU DO IS ON YOU. DON'T BLAME A NETWORK. stay focused and set goals. that's how bet was made.
a dream, a goal, and a plan of action.
please feel free to post you opinion on this issue, don't be afaid to ask questions
for the thousandth time guys, i wrote it the way i wrote it for a reason, i know i contradicted myself! this was a topic bought up by a friend, i wanted to show both sides to the aurgument. i will edit my topic, its not as complicated as you guys make it out to be, i just have a dark sense of humor that flies over the heads of some, sorry for the confusion
